Franklin had his backers and it is obvious that you are one of them. It was obvious from the many posts you have previously submitted expressing the same view. But, c'mon. He's gone now. It's water under the bridge at this point. Are you gonna remind everyone how "dumb" it was to get rid of Franklin every time PSU loses in the future?
You can’t say water under the bridge. He deserves to say this after reading all the Franklin hate post firing. That aged well didn’t it.
While I agree with virtually everything you say, I will caution all not to overreact to one game. A win at Northwestern (very possible) can change things in a heartbeat. What is certain is that all the Franklin hatred and Campbell adoration is more than a bit silly.
LOl, agreed if you are done with a coach after one loss you should probably find some other hobby.
And now IU fans are complaining, the one thing we can all agree on, most fans are clueless.
I know you are being sarcastic (you are right?) but the only coach that was truly available, I'd have preferred is Chesney. Lower floor, but IMO, much higher ceiling. The Pa. coal region roots would have sold as well. But Campbell will be better than most of the Kraft targets. I mean where in hell did he come up with Sitake and see that as a good fit?
Cheer up, we're only a win at Northwestern away from the seats being occupied on the bandwagon and a thread entitled "Campbell does something Franklin never would have" to appear next to the "One play that defines the Matt Campbell era" thread created after the crushing defeat of Marshall.

Michigan has two home losses and USC just got dusted by 2 scores. I don't see a worthy opponent left on the schedule. I think someone here predicted that PSU will not play a team that won't have 3 or 3+ losses all year. Who is that soothsayer?We beat northwestern and we are back in the playoff hunt.
We had 1 bad game ... Michigan fans have had multiple. Talk about wanting to get rid of a coach their fan base is ready to run Whittingham out of town
The thing that has turned me off about sports most are the fans. Most are whiny babies.
Imagine fans being upset? MIchigan, Washington, and USC all lost. We don't need to worry about winning a big game. None on the schedule.
If we are having a serious discussion, I was not sold on Campbell as being "the guy to get PSU over the hump".
Especially ones that harass and hurl insults at the coaches' family.
You would be part of the babies. People constantly pizz and moan even when things go well.
What Kraft said at his post firing news conference, was for the benefit of Pat Kraft. He rode the waves of the anti-Franklin sentiment and wasn't astute enough to understand that winds can shift.
I missed the going well part, I guess. Perhaps you are referring to the loyal fans who were unhappy with 10.11.13 wins?
I don't disagree with this, but with one caveat (heard through the grapevine), that a few HFCs are turned off that the AD is on the sideline and part of ongoing field experience, hugging players, etc. They would prefer the AD to be in the booth. Granted, Kraft was a D-1 player, but he is not one anymore.
What? You think sitting inside the stadium
No sane person thought this would be a playoff year. If Franklin was still here it wouldn't have been expected either.
One of the best lol
With how we played last night , we are the gimme’s on the schedule.
is just the start. Kraft is making things happen.
He was a walk on. His sideline antics make him look like a run of the mill wonna be. His arm around Campbell during the Alma Mater forces me to look for a knife.
So does EX-LAXThe PSU uniform is good for at least 3-4 more wins. And $30 MM for NIL.
SOS is improving. Buffalo routed Robert Morris 31-28.As I just posted in another thread:
”I see no more wins on the schedule.3-9.2-10. The ncaa takes away the temple win just because.”
